In the EU, it is increasingly heard that we are facing a serious crisis in the energy markets in the close future. Brussels points out that EU citizens should prepare for a longer period of cost force and associate States should prepare for more decisive austerity measures.
Within the EU, officials are explicitly talking about the request for caution, reducing fuel consumption and accelerating the energy transition. The latest communications indicate that recommendations akin to those in force during the "pandemic" may shortly return.
According to Businessinfo, the European Commission is starting to talk not only about reacting on an ongoing basis, but besides about changing the regular functioning of states and citizens. According to media reports, the recommended actions include:
– more distant work,
– greater usage of public transport,
– extremist limitation of the usage of private cars,
– further lowering velocity limits on motorways,
– greater fuel saving, especially diesel and aviation fuel.
This is more and more reminiscent of the announcement of erstwhile Danish Environment Minister Idy Auken, in Forbes entitled “You Will Have Nothing and Will Be Happy” [originally released under the title “Welcome To 2030: I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy And Life Has Never Been Better”] This Solgan was inactive utilized respective times in globalist circles, among others during the planet economical Forum in Davos.
The Commission besides wants to accelerate investment in "renewable energy sources" and to proceed with zero-emission assumptions. This is simply a complete madness given, among another things, that China has stressed the importance of coal in its energy mix! According to Reuter, coal accounts for about 61% of China's energy mix. This affects the country's lower vulnerability to oil supply problems.
Brussels is afraid about individual decisions on energy security. EU officials are afraid that further countries will follow Hungary and Slovakia. This was confirmed by Dan Jørgensen, representing the European Commission. He stated that "Europe should avoid fragmented national responses that could disrupt the market. The Commission so calls not only for savings but besides for greater coordination on gas storage, safety of oil supply."
Polish energy safety should trust on present to take the position of Hungary and Slovakia and put against the anticipation of Brussels and environmentalists on coal and lignite. Leave the door open for a possible exit from the European Union and establish a appropriate relation with China, Russia and the United States.
